    What's worse is when you're running through a seemingly impermeable building and all of a sudden you die due to some invisible ball of flames. I don't mind dying to Napalm, but at least let me fúcking see where it is first.

    YES! YES!! YES!!!

    I'am plagued with this ****e.

    if i get napalm on Nuketown I might get 1-2 kills, yet ANY time someone else gets it and I run indoors i still explode in a ball of flame, same with the b52, kills you no matter where you hide. one of the lads on xbox mentioned calling in a b52 on hardcore tdm on nuketown, you'd basically kill everyone on the map, i might do it for the laugh :pac:

    yeah there really has to be an incentive to finish games introduced, something that i think would work well would be a multiplier system for points that goes up by .05 every time you finish a game up to a limit of 1.25 and every time you lose .05 and it goes down to .75

    Well I'd be buggered so...

    I always quit if in a lobby that's too laggy. It hasn't been so bad recently but every now and then you'll be in one that's unplayable.

    Sometimes I'll quit if I go on a run of getting stupidly killed
    - killed by camper
    - respawn into hail of bullets
    - respawn into napalm strike
    - respawn around corner explode by grenade
    - quit

    Sometimes I'll spawn cos I'm a cranky git

    Don't see much point hanging in there for everyone else's amusement but honestly I don't quit often.

    I'd really like them to do something about CONSTANTLY being put into the middle of a game when you're playing alone

    Generally the team you get put on is being handed their ass. So it's annoying that you incur a loss that's not your fault

    There should be an option to ask if you want to join a game in progress, or wait for a new one


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71 ✭✭Nantastic


    Yeah agree. Sick of spendin more time waiting for a game to load up that actually playing it. Joining demo game 1-0 down just as the fracking bomb goes boom to make 2-0.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 667 ✭✭✭DazzlerIE


    I mostly play HQ, so the time they like to plant you into a game is when your team is losing 190 nil, and the other team have a huey up and dogs out too

    **** that

    Its a necessary evil unfortunatly. You see if a team based game of 6v6 is on and one person quits then your team is down that one man, the game then searches to pull in someone else looking for a game to make up numbers. If for whatever reason this goes on a long time (people saying f**k that or lack of good connection players) then the opposing team nauturally start pulling out a lead.

    The situation then compounds where the game keeps trying to bring players in the even the odds but folks look at the game and again say "f**k that".

    Its also benficial for people just entering online for a session and looking for a game, if the game only selected to put you into awaiting match up lobbies then you would spend an inordinate amount of time looking to get gaming. The general concensus is that its better land you in, get you gaming no matter what rather than have you sit for ages waiting.

    I dont think there should be an option as nobody would want to join a losing team and you would have a lot of games turning into 6v3 or 6v2 and staying that way because nobody would want to join.However I also think if you join a game in progress after a certain point it should not count as a loss for you.I have literally joined games where all I could do was select my class and seconds later the game was over and I had another loss I didn't earn.Like you I tend to play alone and this happens an awful lot and it's very annoying.If it didn't count as a loss every time it probably wouldn't bug me at all.

    ya xbox. It's just gone tits up since I downloaded the maps.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,453 ✭✭✭jugger0


    Yeah worst lag ive ever seen tonight, bullets chasing me around corners all that jazz... not cool gayarch not cool.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,798 ✭✭✭Local-womanizer


    First time to post here,playing tonight,I had loads of problems:

    1: Joined far to many games just as they ended.
    2: Serious lag,yesterday I was getting 30 odd kills for around 2 deaths,today 16 deaths for about 4 kills. I empty whole mags into enemy only to be killed by a few rounds from them.
    3: This was the worst,I ended up in a game of Deathmatch with about 6 minutes to go, Myself on one team Vs 6 on the other...

    Think I'll leave it for a few days at this stage,a game shouldnt be this much bloody hard work.

    If thats the worst lag you suffer, you've been a lucky lucky man. That's most days for me. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 34,788 ✭✭✭✭krudler


    ya xbox. It's just gone tits up since I downloaded the maps.

    only think I noticed was spot on shots with snipers not registering, as in not even hitmarkers when i was aiming a guys head who wasnt even moving, itd be one thing if there was lag and the bullets were missing a moving target, its another against a stationary one where they appear to be flying through him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭magicianz


    Blops has gone to hell, have to restarting searches repeatedly to get a game, rarely do I have no lag with my 30meg connection that gave me no trouble pre patch, I had a 2 bar earlier! 2! I'm used to 5 like! That said I was over 2.5 kd :D but anyway, 3arc need to cop the **** on

    Same thing happened to me on grid, was prowling in the C area in domination, some weiner was camping in the same window the whole game so i changed to sniper specifically to shoot him in his little camping face. Took aim shot him and nothing happened! fooker just stood there looking at me so i shot him another 3 times and didnt get a single marker... then he noobtubed me.

    RAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE:mad::mad::mad:

    i get way to many hitmarkers, therefore losing a lot of 50/50
